😈🔪⛓🐷💩🍖🛒🧟♂️. That is a coward. I went to with your cute little dog 🐶, or a parakeet 🤗🦜....
🧟♂️❤️🌏👍
Thank you for all you do, Ed. I'm in the process of becoming a volunteer with Challenge 22! I imagine it will be very rewarding :) I've been getting very depressed from thinking about the vystopia. Your videos always lighten my day and remind me I'm not crazy for standing up for the animals in this way
Animal AG is going down billions of animals will be saved. Zero sympathy for animal farmers
Ed, I came here after watching your video from today highlighting the news clip from WISN 12 Milwaukee which is where I live! As you stated, Joaquin was simply stating the truth about the dairy industry where the calf is ripped from the mother hours after birth and that the product in which they enrich themselves with is not designed for human consumption! Its for the baby calf! Thank you Ed for all you do to enlighten the world!
He has been through so much with his brother river lets work on drugs 1st and help mankind
"A farmer can get another job, but an animal can´t get another life" - Earthling Ed
Nikan Angelos
A farmer can’t get another job. A farmer earns his position as a farmer. You can’t just magically switch jobs when you’ve worked hard for one your whole life.
An animal getting another life is irrelevant if they were raised for meat or if it’s completely natural to eat them.
Mr Otaku well said 👏🏻
It's *possible* for farmers to get other jobs. Maybe not easy, but still possible. However, it's completely *impossible* for the animals to get another life. Breeding beings into existence, does not give them the right to kill said beings.
Does nature equal morality?
Eco-friendly Vegan Geek
Oh god not this argument again.
A farmer shouldn’t have to go through the ridiculous and unnecessary stupid procedure of changing a job simply because vegan idiots don’t understand morality and reality, if it is even possible for them to do that in the first place.
I don’t care whether it’s “*impossible*” for an animal to get another life, since their life being taken was justified.
Don’t stupidity tell people what you think they should have the right to do or not to do.
If you breed animals it is perfectly okay to eventually kill them if done for the consumption of meat. Since the issue here is a moral one it just have to tackle it this way. There is nothing wrong with taking the life of an animal if done for the purpose of food consumption. There are instances when killing is okay and even should be done, e.g, self defence, euthanasia, in war, when punishing a crime worthy of death, for the consumption of food, etc. You might say that these instances are life threatening and aren’t comparable to meat consumption, and you would be wrong. When you punish a death row convict with death, the people killing the them don’t have their life threatened but it was completely justified, but even so that is still irrelevant, as it’s still moral to eat meat even though it isn’t just for survival as the act of simply consuming food is not evil as fulfilling your basic human function is not evil. “But how is it not evil to eat meat when you could just chose plants and save a life?!”
Because it is still completely natural for us to do so, and just because we can survive on eating plants, doesn’t mean we should or should just suppress our natural instincts to eat meat, just as we shouldn’t suppress our other instincts. Also the act of taking the life of an animal for food is not evil, so whether I can to save it’s life by eating plants is irrelevant as the life being taken was justified.
“But nature isn’t morality! Also not suppressing your natural instincts justified rape and murder!”
As for the first point, wow. So you admit that you’re against nature then, if you’re going against it due to its lack of morality? But hypocritical coming from someone who claims to be eco friendly. You of all people then should realise then the nature doesn’t give a shit about our morality and that it is how the world works and if we go against it, we are fucking it up. That is something that we have to live with whether we like it or not, as the world or biological life doesn’t work by human morality. If we value our morality so much than we will have to come to a compromise with nature, that will prevent our humanity while respecting nature and the eco system. We do this raising the animals in conditions that are the best for them and ending their lives as humanely and peacefully as possible (which is something you can do? Many vegans don’t think it’s possible to kill something humanely, which is just flat out false).
The best way to piss everyone off is to tell them the truth.
‘No one is more hated than he who speaks the truth.’ - Plato
One of the best quotes I’ve read
Very true
Ed and myself do this for money
sorry to piss you off 😁
well your good at ticking people off with ur stupidity
truuuueeeee
I never even considered going vegan before but after hearing his speech and seeing these dairy farmers being petty, I am won over by the idea of going vegan.
Nice! 💚✌
Yay! Comments like this always make my day. :)
I hope your loving your new vegan journey. If you're not a great cook have a look at The avant garde vegan on here he has some great recipes. X
Watch "Dairy is Scary" and or the undercover sting op at Fairlife Farms. The longest ongoing joke over my 38 years was how much cheese I consumed daily. It's been since June 27th and I have zero cravings or deprived feelings. Actually picturing the process when there's a delicious cheese in front of me makes the sides of my throat tingle as if I'm about to vomit. Being completely transparent, I doubt I would have succeeded five years ago. But the abundance of options and evolution of vegan foods makes it incredibly easy. I know everyone lives life on their own terms and I choose to go dairy free for the tortured animal moral issues, not for health at all. HOWEVER, I did nothing different in my routine and I lost all of the bloating I had for decades. I had learned to deal with bloating but I lost about 26 lbs and the bloat simply by vigilantly avoiding dairy. I did grow up on meat and potatoes and personally loved it. Some vegans hate plant based meat as they already hated meat itself. But I loved it and there's something for everyone! Full transparency you will have to learn through failure. Just like anything else, not everyone loves the same thing. Go to Sprouts and Trader Joe's, you'll feel like I did. A mortified deer in the headlights. Truthfully though, they aren't judging you! You don't have to learn how to cook either. You can do fast food or buy tons of veg and fruit, chop it up and make whatever you want! I never thought I'd find a dip to replace my ranch. Then I found gold! Good Foods dips, the queso flavor is... well there are no words
Halo Top ice cream made with coconut milk and only 15 grams of fat in the entire tub!
So Delicious carmel coffee creamer, I could go on and on.
wonderful! I never considered going vegan either but two years ago i came across some facts that gave me "no choice" but to go vegan and two years later i can honestly say it's the freaking BEST decision i ever made in my life!!!
In addition check out the following documentaries :)

If it wasn't for Joaquin taking that speech as an opportunity to raise his voice, I would have never questioned my drinking milk.
You shouldnt have, Joaquin is quite a ridiculous person
Same lol loved his speech
@@mskidi I'm sorry but saying he is a ridiculous person makes you sound like a ridiculous person :)
@@mskidi someone is triggered lol
@@mskidi someone being weird doesn't mean that they're wrong. And still, he could be wrong about everything else and still be correct with regard to his Oscar's speech. We do inseminate cows, take their babies when they're born, which doubtlessly causes distress to the animal, and then we take the milk that was intended for that calf to live off of, and use it in our food/beverages. Whether you're vegan or not, that is true.
Hahaaa I love how you throw shade politely. Stay cool, vegan Jesus
Hahah me and my boyfriend call Ed Vegan jesus too!

“Do y’all really want to starve?” I’m sorry but I don’t think there is anyone who lives solely off of dairy products stop thinking you’re so important mate
For real. I can sort of see where people are coming from defending meat (not saying I agree with it) but milk? There are 0 reasons to defend dairy, people should know by now that we don't need titty milk from another spieces to have "strong bones". It's fucking disgusting
Grammar question cuz im bad at English. Is saying off of always necessary or are there situations in which i can just use off
@@user-ue6gg3zv3o just saying off makes grammatical sense also, the 'of' isn't needed :)
@@nicoleelliott5280 ty :D
@@83uwb The Bible actually says that you are not supposed to drink milk after babyhood. In babyhood, we drink human milk, so that means no cow or goat milk.
Applause to Joaquin Phoenix for using his fame and Hollywood stage to speak against cruelty for the helpless ones. What a personality.
❤️
Vegan 4 years. I’m STARVING. Starving for people to wake up. 🙂
Mallory Schroeder I wake up multiple times a day i don’t know what you’re talking about
Fromans so sassy! Are you a troll or just thick?
Leon Lawson I don’t know how you can take that comment as anything else than a troll but anyhoo i don’t remember saying it and it’s definitely not meant to be taken seriously.
I've been awake for my entire life. Living off of wild meat or livestock I raised.
@@yourwaterswoodlandskeithad111 then why are you here?
He was the only one among all those stars and attendees who had the balls and the integrity to say anything meaningful and worthwhile. Yes, they gave him a standing ovation, but how many of them will take his
words to heart and modify their selfish and inflexible habits of consuming dairy? Their concerns are only for their fame and the meaningless awards bestowed on them. Joaquin is a hero.
Yeah, I wondered how many stood up because the other people stood up.
@ichew gum It wasn't about who cares. I was just agreeing with the first comment with my own thought that I had at the time. I agree with you that it is ultimately a good image.
He wrapped a lot in his speech and still related it to film. Impeccable
@K Rr that's the point; to be using one's platform for more than a gratuitous self congratulation. What is the point of "just another lefty"? Is that supposed to be derogatory? I'd love be just another lefty. Every addition to 'just a lefty' points to an overhaul of an outdated system full of bigoted injustice. Count me in.
@K Rr I thought it full of subtext. I agree with @LT. There was a great deal in that speech, and not telling people what do, and reaching out, by way of self example in expressing gratitude for 2nd chances, was exemplifying the compassion that he implies we should be exercising.
It seems to me to be a hugely brave thing given our current paradigm, to have done. And it isn't as if he hasn't been saying this and doing this work, all along. He has.
Maybe it was an act, given his skillful use of talents, yet it certainly felt authentic and truely from the place of gratitude and love.
Eating vegan ice cream while watching. Never going back to cow's milk.
And dairy free ice cream is so delicious😋
@@lillizabeth44
Seconded.
Non dairy ice cream is... really good.
Morrisons (UK) do 500ml for 80p (~$1 US).
Things are looking up.
😊
I've found both the vegan ice creams and yogurts to be superior to dairy versions anyways in taste (not to mention health!). So many people out there are just way too programmed/deluded to even try them though.
Bare in min dairy free apparently is not vegan, if it says that. It's still made with proteins of cow's milk. Found that out the hard way, so you don't have too? Always stay vigilent and amist the n*zi gov't propoganda! 🤬
These dairy farmers are acting incredibly childish.
Seriously, they‘re basically saying „You say drinking milk is wrong, so I‘m gonna drink milk to spite you“ which is a very clear example of childish behaviour.
Eating meat or drinking milk (or whatever) just to spite vegans is something they do because they don’t know how to argue.
A good friend grew up on a dairy farm. When I went vegan he insisted I come and see the farm for myself. So I did.
He showed me everything and in the end, with a smile, asked "So what do you think?". He legit thought I would be excited...I was horrified. Cows milked around the clock. Bulls tied up nearby. Calves taken. Distress. Hormone injections.
I was thankful he showed me. If I was even 1% unsure before the visit, he took care of that.
@@bluenorth3965 indoctrination, nothing more. The more people speak of it, the sooner we'll be done with tiny bit painful transition.
I literally just picked up a dairy farm dvd at the library aimed at 4-12 year olds. This stuff is ingrained in them since grade school.
Insane ... wow
"You'll thank me later."
"I'm doing this for your own good."
...and many more. All cries of the sick homo sapiens on this earth that torture us, sometimes with schadenfreude. I have so many stories! But here's one: When I was very young, my boss sat me down with a visiting friend of his. I was excited. I was about to learn first hand how this man had made his many millions. Little by little I realized that he was just a pimp. He had (made and) sold Korean prostitutes to American soldiers during the Korean war. I'd never met a prouder, more respected man.
I was vegetarian for decades, but not vegan until recently. If I'd had a friend like yours, I would have been vegan this whole time. Ironic.
@Adam A. Please provide a single example that is as horrifying as manually forcing a cow to be pregnant, stealing her baby, slaughtering it for veal, then later killing the mother after she's passing out from exhaustion, then eating her too.
A person who needs to drink cows milk to prove that they are "manly" is definitely one of the biggest oxymorons. Milk is for the baby, not for the "grown-up".
If you say so.
Caw's milk is for her baby, like a woman's is for her baby. Milk is a product made by the mother because the baby has no teeth yet in order to chew. What's so hard to understand stg so simple and logical? If an adult wants milk go and milk your old ugly mama. Imagine that.
Its so easy to understand now that a cows milk is for her calf like human mother gives birth to new born child its that child’s milk. Do you see people going to hospitals sucking on new mothers breast milk really. I better shut as someone might get some sick ideas. If cows milk was to make your bones stronger you have thought people in old age would have super strong bones. But they can easily break bones and hips. The diary industry is full of crap not manly to drink milk just stupidity
Baby Cows, not human babys
What do we do with the milk when the calves grow up?
He is the reason why I turned vegan and for him I’m forever grateful
thanks prison mike

"Everybody on this planet benefits when the dairy industry crumbles."
This would make a good T shirt.
Yes. It is.😀
get em printed, send me a link. don't overcharge me ;)
A line with pretty deep impact.
So would - your a grown man and your still breast feeding?
I will cheer for the day dairy falls. They hate him cause he's telling the truth and sales are declining. Next stop for decline is the meat industry. If I live long enough to see them fall I'll be overjoyed.
Hopefully the decline of the dairy industry will trigger the fall of the meat industry, at least for cows. So much meat comes from dairy cows, with them out of the picture, meat will be (even) more expensive to produce.
Who are you lot kidding. Yes you may reduce the sales so butchers can’t stay open. But what you will do then is force more to go to big supermarkets that get there meat and milk from the farms you lot so hate. Try stopping all the Chinese and Indians from cooking meat. You have no chance. Old people dnt listen to this stuff I asked my Nan she’s had no idea what I was on about. She still goes and buys her meat. And so will I. And my son. We dnt like veg on its own no matter how it’s prepped
@@benjaminnicholas8746 I said trigger, not eliminate. I agree it's less likely old people will listen, as they're more set in their ways (generally). But younger people are more willing to listen and change, which is what we're seeing. Needless to say, there are also plenty of meat alternatives besides veg. Whole plant foods, mock meats, etc. I also said I'd never be a vegan, but it's so easy now! It's hard to predict change.
@Aidan BUTLER For restricting read liberating
@Aidan BUTLER you only restrict yourself by consuming the same animals your entire life while vegan food abundant and delicious. Your taste buds are not a justification anymore.

But I like meat. I don't want meat industry to be closed. Never.
The dairy farmers do not measure much then. They take more resources than they give. They cause world hunger.
People: you kill animals
Dairy farmers: 😞😞 why would you say this? 😭
You know how many times I’ve had to explain to people that cows aren’t born producing milk😂 that they are actually like human and have to have a baby
I hadn’t ever thought of this and I’m horrified now when I go to the huge milk isle in the supermarket
I was actually taught this in school and for the longest time I thought cows always had milk. One day, I looked it up myself and was very confused when I found out they had to be pregnant to produce milk. Especially considering how we can simply go to a grocery store and buy milk, it seems to be an excessive amount. We are taught to be consumers, even if it's misinformation.
My 50 year old mother thinks that if cows aren’t milked their udders get full and will burst. Lmao the schooling system has failed
are there actually people who are THAT stupid?!? LMAO how dumb can someone get

Who else would love to see Joaquin Phoenix on this channel discussing veganism/ destructive meat&dairy industry?
Dane Duplessis the problem is that after 40 years vegan he is sick of it! I don’t talk about anything anymore with zombies being 28 years vegan & 45 years meat free - they are not worth it. I say my opinion & leave them to their misery.
He did some of the narrations in Dominion and Earthlings!
@@OrangeHealia I don't know if he's sick of it, exactly, he definitely feels obligated. He went to London the other day to Witness with other activists and did an interview. Ps love seeing those long years vegetarian and vegan 💚🌱🌍
@@OrangeHealia,
You say, "... he is sick of it!". Who is sick of what?
Then you say, "I don’t talk about anything anymore ..." and "I say my opinion & leave them to their misery." You seem very confused. First you say you are not talking and then you say that you are saying your opinion. Do you or don't you want to say things? Who's misery do you want to ignore?
If you make a comment, you may want to make sure that it actually makes a point. I wish you the best. I have found that fruit has done extraordinary things for me.
I wish I could like this 100 times
I love how meat eaters like to get in front of a vegetarian or vegan and eat meat. Like we don't see that every day.
ikr? as IF their ignorance is gonna stop us 💪💪
Its kinda sad watching them making an ass of themselves without realizing how petty and childish they seem
It's cos they got no arguments.
And they think they’re so impressive because they enjoy it.

I was growing up on farm, a small farm, we usually had 5 or 6 diary cows alongside with pigs, chickens ducks etc. I'm 37 year old now so that was a while ago.
And everything what Joaquin and Earthling Ed have said about calves taken, milking cows to sell milk to local people in our case just to make money, leaving the baby females for diary cows and sending poor baby male bulls to slaughterhouse when they a few or several months old it's all true.
I was growing up and thought that this is all normal. Well it's not!
When baby calf was separated from mum the same day or sometimes 2, 3 days later they both were crying for weeks day and night.
So glad I grown up and became vegan now. I just regret I did it so late! Once I educated myself about consuming diary/meat/eggs and how unhealthy it is for us I changed overnight.
💚
Im amazed you were able to break away from this! Thank you for speaking out
Rock on!
We feel entitled ... to blanket vast expanses of plants with herbicides, and overturn vast acreages of soil - displacing and starving billions of sentient animals, directly killing billions of small mammals and reptiles, quadrillions of insects, and untold numbers of soil microbiota, so we can grow food to eat, which we've dubbed "cruelty free" and "vegan."
@@anthonycapitan5802 Silly response, what do you think cows eat, air???
most of the dislikes are probably from dairy farmers and their families who refuse to come to terms with reality.
“Come to my farm ding dong” I bet Joaquin would actually do that. Literally the day after the Oscars he went to a slaughterhouse and rescued a mother cow and her calf.
I have so much respect for Joaquin...he has been a vegan since he was 3 and has been a passionate activist for animal rights for years. Earthlings, and his narration of same, was the reason I became vegan. Sorry, dairy farmers, but I trust the words of a man who does not wish to be in any way responsible for the suffering/death of a living creature, over yours. Period.
Martha Plimpton has really the sweetest story about River, they were out eating and River had to leave the restaurant when her crab came. Being very young when their family went vegan I don't think they got that jaded the way most of us are, its pure horror for them.

I grew up in the Dairy industry and went on to become an award-winning Dairy Cow Judge for the FFA. I also consumed milk and all the other dairy products, until I realized what happened to me and my family. My grandparents, parents and then myself wound up in the hospital with heart disease as a result. Then my beloved wife had a heart attack and a stroke which paralyzed her and put her into the nursing home for 18 years now. Can you farmers imagine why? Regrettably, I was one of you. I quit it for ever. Will you, please? Get a healthy job and stop this horrible practice!

You're right, we should just eat them instead
@War Dog your off your meds son better lay down and take them and stay off here because you Are insane if you believe that. You need to go to a huge dairy farm and see the cruelty and hear the cries, I did for years and it still haunts me because they are BEINGS with FEELINGS just like humans. Your a sad man~
@War Dog Ethical and dairy are contradictions in terms. We need fruit and veg farmers. Animal farmers are useless in providing anything besides pain and suffering. I haven't eaten animal products in 14 years, perfect health. Go visit Ryan Humistons channel. That vegan dude is a beast!!
@War Dog The difference is I don't harm others with my choices .... vegans are trying to stop insanity .... I was part of the madness....14 years later I'm feeling so much better ....physically, mentally and of course ethically
When my fiancé and I (vegetarians at the time) visited a farm just under a year ago, we went to watch the cows being milked and ended up leaving after about 30 seconds because the scene distressed us so much. We both went vegan a handful of months later, and seeing what life is like for dairy cows was a huge reason why. I'll never understand why farmers think seeing the sad life these cows lead would make anyone change their minds?
Maybe cows often go through much worse days than those you saw so to the farmers, it's a good life you were seeing.
He’s the O N L Y ONLY ONLY celebrity who has EVER spoken for animals on the academy awards. Because celebrities don’t want to offend their fan base. BUT J P is soooo organic & P U R E........He’s an ANGEL.
My dad is a smart, caring person, and he truly believed cows MUST be milked, like we have to help them. When I told him the truth he was dumbfounded.
But the real question of his character is whether or not he has gone Vegan after finding out:P Sadly a lot of people are "dumbfounded" when they realize the truth, and those same people often do their best to pretend they never learned the truth because that way they can still enjoy the same lifestyle they've always had while pretending not to know it's immoral. But very glad people like you share the truth:) My family couldn't care less sadly, or rather my little sister and the older adults don't care. My brother and I are thankfully Vegan, 3 years and staying that way!
A lot of people believe that. They teach that in elementary schools here. They make it seem like they automatically produce milk without having a baby.
When i told my mom she fell to the ground and started crying. A few days later i had her watch Gary Yourofsky's speech. She became vegan that day. Has been vegan going on 5 years now. Her health has improved so much and she is even having an influence on others. My mom was 65 when she became vegan. It is never too late.

It's one thing to consume cruelty foods when you are ignorant but when you are told the truth you would think that every decent human being will find it necessary to stop the consumption. I'm really feeling sick about humanity in general right now. Thankfully my friends have responded better and two are fully vegan and a few are trying to transition.
I haven't had any dairy for three years and haven't starved. I'm thriving.
Surprisingly, I’m also still alive 😱
Dam right !!!!! Vegan rules
It was the first thing I gave up, because it was making me ill. It’s the easiest thing in the world to give up.

Dont normally comment. But this is a truly crucial point and crucial channel, keep this up Ed, you're smart af
Today we were talking about people who are starving with our teacher and i said to him 'how can we feed 56 billion land animals forchumans to eat and we cant feed the 14 million kids who die every year because of starvation?' He was speechless
I'm gonna use that, thank you.
@@goaway7421 we all are, man😂
In my high school textbook it was written they are dying because they don't have enough noble animal protein...yeah...
@@user-dt3hk7fu8w I'm a teacher and I actually I had seen that... without thought I literally blurred out, "What the load of garbage shit lie are they giving me to indoctrinate you today?" I then went on a rampage rage discussion against Monsanto, DuPont and other industries and corporations that profit on the misery, suffering and deaths of all living beings, especially that of humans (starvation is due to lack of redistribution and rights to be ones own farmer; again the evils of Mosanto making it illegal to save seeds and making growing food impossible). Lets just say I had one student congratulate me on being the first teacher he ever had that he truly paid any attention to, because I spoke the truth everyone was afraid of or don't know about. It is moments like that which makes me not regret going into the education field. We are suppose to EDUCATE, not indoctrinate.
Best line dude
"Its kind of a little bit sad really that these men feel they have to breastfeed on camera to assert their dominance" mic drop
Legendary. Absolutely hecking legendary
My parents actually agreed with the farmers and said that Joaquin went too far... guess people can’t hear the truth
Ah, so telling the truth is going too far, I get it... The fact is that most people seem to want to be lied to (and then they complain about others lying to them).
humblewarrior except it is to cows
Being stuck to a machine sucking your milk out of your body without your consent is torture.It is rape .
Lets be honest, dairy farmers aren't known for their brains. Most dairy farmers I've meet aren't very self aware.
"come out to my farm and see whats really going on DingDong. You wont."
-Joaquin Phoenix has been to numerous farms, protests (he was even arrested at a protest the day after winning an award just recently) he's seen it all in person it's hilarious people would try to challenge activists like Joaquin when this stuff is heavily documented.
Saki Dickerson yes indeed. Ed has also documented this hasn’t he?
Joaquin Phoenix grew up in a cult.....it figures, right ? Now he is the hysterical vegan cult hahahaha
@@iams2109 "Hysterical" (means affected by or deriving from wildly uncontrolled emotion) is not a word that applies do Joaquin at all, in my opinion. He is more like a "sober" (meaning serious, sensible, and solemn) person, a person who can see things as they really are. It's shocking when you've been living in a illusion and you find out things are not as you thought they were. What Joaquin states in his speech is the most unquestionable truth. He is not attacking farmers. He is telling us what cows go through in order for people can consume dairy products. Who wants to be a part of that specially if we don't need to, and it's so easy to change? I'm so inspired by Joaquin, he is such a courageous man, down to hearth, with his heart in the right place.
@@martaso643 since you are a vegan i know you can explain me very well the definition of 'Hysterical' because vegans are the most hysterical ones we will find lol
@@iams2109 I hear you must have had some experiences with vegan people that were certainly different than the experiences I've had. Or maybe you are feeling unconfortable with the idea that your actions may not be in lign with your own moral values. It was hard for me when I realised that too and of course deep down I was afraid to change my habits. And I was scared about what my family and friends would think about that. Now I feel it was one of the best decisions I made in my life.
Of course you can find hysterical vegans, as you can also find hysterical non-vegans. Joaquin to me, doesn't seem like a hysterical vegan, but he may seem that way to you. You can try to think about what it is that makes you feel that way and you may find some interesting answers. :) peace to you my fellow human.
“Masculine” dairy farmers drinking estrogen filled baby formula from another species to assert their masculinity? People are finally realizing that dairy is for baby cows. Milk is for babies and isn’t interchangeable between species. The fact that ADULT humans drink milk from a DIFFERENT SPECIES is outrageous! So grateful for Joaquin and you Ed for teaching the truth! Great vid!
@SoggyBreaad What animals will and won't do is irrelevant to what we should and shouldn't do.
What you actually should be thinking when you're drinking cow breast milk is that a cow was raped for it, then a little calf was denied that milk that was meant for him, separated from his mother and stabbed in the throat just for your momentary taste pleasure. Anyone who knows what happens in the dairy industry and supports it is despicable, and in my eyes, inhuman.
CynicalIdealist you’re welcome to have an opinion but you should recognise that your view on it isn’t some objective morality that all humans must follow.
@@jackhopewell1745 what is objective morality?
@@cynicalidealist11 I do think about it. And I don't care lol. I've watched slaughterhouse footage from Joey carbstrong and was close to going vegan. I saw the pigs being stabbed and was horrified to be honest.
But then they gutted it and sawed it in half. And omg I dribbled hard. I was looking inside this dead animal that I was nearly crying over, and my reaction was hunger. I saw food, and my other emotions went away. That's honestly why I like Joey despite not agreeing with him. He saved me from becoming vegan by reminding me that my instincts know better than societies bullshit morals.
@@lukecheshire2299 society is already anti vegan so stop acting like the world is against you.
Im gonna buy some Almond milk today, instead of cow milk.
So proud of Joachim Phoenix for speaking the truth in front of so many people knowing that only few are not consuming dairy.
I understand the farmers.
Like I understand the slave driver.
But it's time to change.
there is NOTHING to understand about slave-driving. Nothing at all. Cornflakes and cow milk is much more understandable.
GMO glyphosate ridden corn and pus/ blood laden non-human mammalian milk taken from rape victims .... doesn’t seem too appealing to me but each to their own.
Me too
Mitch Callander surely better than owning and mistreating an African child? Perhaps not, but I’ll stick to my Cornflakes.
@@chuffsie You could add tobacco farmers to the list, though. It's more a big-picture analogy than trying to quantify how much people care.
Dairy farmers, slave owners, tobacco farmers: all relevant and successful for a long time until people started peeling back the layers. Slowly they started to say, "No. This is no longer who we are. This does not make us thrive and evolve." And slowly things changed and are changing still. Same idea.
In 1,000 years, this speech by Joaquin Phoenix will be played to demonstrate as one of the few that spoke up so early in the animal rights movement.
Right! This world need people like him!!
to whom no-one will be alive except the COWS and All critters-man is going to be DEAD and gone.
YOU ARE DELUSIONAL JUST LIKE JOAQUIN! GET OUT OF THE CULT!
@James Furey Hey I love how you just allowed a different perspective and thought about it objectively. I am a vegan and I do see a problem with hunting - there are many videos that explain the matter better than I could, maybe check out some! Whatever conclusion you come to, though, avoiding products from factory farmed animals is a huge step in the right direction as pretty much none of the meat we eat daily is from hunted animals and dairy and eggs certainly never are. So thanks for being open and I wish you the best!
@James Furey Hunting would be an understandable practice if it was necessary, but in most parts of the world, it isn't. It's often for sport, which is quite wrong in my opinion. Not trying to be rude, my thoughts. Can you explain what about domestication you think is twisted? Genuinely curious.
The fact that these farmers are reacting and emotionally stirred is a positive sign that all the activism efforts are working. Every action is not in vain. 😊 Put-downs and insults are signs of vulnerability and insecurity. This is exactly when we have to keep pushing forward and not back down on our convictions and fighting for it. While losing a job can be a scary thing, that does not warrant torturing and exploiting other beings. What is more important - a human's job or the fundamental rights and freedom of countless innocent beings? I'd choose the latter in a split second.
The world needs more people like Joaquin and Ed!👏👍✌
And more people who are against abuse and torture of animals.
The dairy industry is in such a fragile state that even someone stating an objective truth will cause them to be outraged.
"And what do you do mr phoenix? Oh you provide entertainment"
Well what do you do mr farmer? Oh that's right, you provide sadness, suffering and death.
I'd rather be providing joy and entertainment.
Do you actually know what farmers do? Joaquin Phoenix stops doing his job and 90% of the world wont notice. Farmers stop doing their job and the world becomes paralyzed. Granted, there are things to change regarding farming and animal treatment, but dont for a minute think that farmers just provide sadness suffering and death, because without a farmer you wouldn't have anything to pick up in the convenience store/supermarket around the corner.
@@carlosparra8976 Your comparison is off the scale. If one dairy farmer walks, no one notices. If Mr. Phoenix dissapears, millions will start asking questions. This show how important one person can be.
@@moochannel523 And your example is sort of dumb. I was talking about the relevance of the activity, much like the op's comment.. Dont start comparing the role of an actor with the role of someone who grows and produces food, because the actor's job, while significant, is by no means necessary for survival. Of course I wasnt referring to the situation at an individual level (if someone kidnapps joaquin phoenix people will start talking...well duh), but the overall importance of the activity for all humankind.
@@moochannel523 I have to say your example is neither here nor there and very much out of touch with the world outside your entertainment and glamour bubble. Do you really think that most people in the world (who live in 3rd world countries and dont really care who joaquin phoenix is) would care if he suddenly disappeared? What if fruits, vegetables, grains and all sorts of food started to disappear from their plazas, grocery stands or supermarkets? Do you really think that someone like Joaquin Phoenix, who of course is an excellent performer, is THAT important for people who are living outside your bubble and struggling to survive in the world?
@@johanvoellner1849
WOW. We are out here putting celebrities over farmers. Entertainment over living off the land. BrainWASHED
This fills me with so much hope, dairy is soooo crumbling, your work Ed is a momentum thats gaining weight and speed, yessss
One day I’ll be proud of myself for becoming vegan while using animal products was still accepted by society but jaoquin is on another level.
The other day when I was driving home from work I stopped at an intersection. Parked next to me was a large stock truck waiting to turn into the street of my city's largest slaughterhouse. I heard banging coming from inside the truck, so I looked through the little gaps - it was full of beautiful young calves. They were staring at me, frightened. I felt incredibly helpless.
Here in New Zealand we slaughter over 2 million (and in the past 3 million) male calves each year as they are seen as byproducts of the dairy industry. If people had to watch these adorable, innocent creatures in fear while getting their throats slit, I would hope they'd think twice about their consumption of cheese, milk, butter, and ice cream.
There are plenty who don't give a shit. It's an awareness thing. Humans need a certain degree of development to be, well, human
@@junglejarred6366 If humanity had never consumed the milk from other animals we would find this behavior to be absurd. Unfortunately, it has become the norm, and therefore people assume that because it is "normal" it is also acceptable (i.e. if it's legal it must also be morally okay) If, as a society, our perception of dairy changed, our collective mentality would also change.
Emilia Wilson Another kiwi vegan here. Its hard because weve got such a huge dairy industry here. PS try the Rebel Whopper from BK if you havent already
@@DrBojangles007 Haha, I have tried it! It was good - especially when I added some vegan aioli! I know there's been some controversy over the patties being fried on the same grill as the meat patties, but as long as no animal had to die I'm all for it. Plus, we're creating a demand for more plant-based fast food alternatives.
@@DrBojangles007 But yeah, dairy in New Zealand is huge. It is losing money though, which is a good sign of things to come!
The fact that Joaquin is speaking up about this is a sign the world is changing. #plantsftw #vegan4life 🙏🏼😄🥦🍎
I wish so many other vegan celebrities would stand up too and speak out.
He's been speaking up for the animals for decades. He's just using his heightened popularity to use big platforms.
The more people that speak up, the easier it is for others to follow suit.
Planet of the Vegans I agree, he turned me to veganism 20 years ago xx
Katrina Deacon you’ve been vegan 20 years !?
Grateful for Joaquin Phoenix and Earthling Ed, for all their animal rights advocacy! Truly inspiring. They are saving animals and changing minds.
I’ve recently transitioned to being vegan, i became a vegetarian in February and after learning more about the dairy and egg industry i decided to go vegan. And actually, thanks to what I’ve learned from multiple sources (including Ed) I was able to convince my mom to cut dairy out of her diet!! So yay!! Also being vegan is great! It’s a bit hard to get used to because I used to eat a lot of junk food and most of that is not vegan but now it’s kind of forcing me to eat healthier and cook more and I feel great! This is the healthiest I’ve eaten in a long time if not ever!! Thank you Ed for spreading so much helpful knowledge!! 🌱🌱🌱
“it really is sad that these men feel they have to breast feed on camera to assert their dominance”
Ed... 👏 👏 👏❤️
Most of these men farmers have bitch wives that only give their husband vagina access if they continue exploiting animals for profit to support their aging fat asses. Men only started exploiting animals for Milk because women couldn't keep up with a constant nomadic hunting lifestyle and breastfeeding 👹
Check your female privilege woman 👉
@humblewarrior I'm turning the tables by offering a different perspective then, ,"let's blame men for everything"
@@wheeledskeptic8052 didn't see any woman coming out on twitter and bashing Mr. Phoenix 🤔 You sure you should be on youtube? Your IQ is dangerously low for such an activity 🤭
Dairy farmer: We have an important job, we help feed the world!
Plant-produce farmers: Are we a joke to you?!
Also how do they "feed" the world when the crops produced to feed the animals could have been given to humans right away and reduce world hunger?!
The fact u just used the term plant producing farmers is just stupid. Also here's some news for you. Lots of dairy farms also sell arable (plants) depending on the land they farm on.
@@JCHexlad Wow thanks for the info! What should I call them then? :)
@@JCHexlad Dairy industry rapes cows and isn't necessary for our health.
Your word games don't change that.
@@JCHexlad We are keenly aware on how they grow and purchase their food for the cows. That land could easily be tilled the right way to grow beans, corn, wheat, etc., that is NOT genetically modified to be for cow consumption only. For every one cow fed for her short life, milk is "produced" that "feeds" humans an unhealthy commodity for an average of 1/220 of their annual nutritional needs, ounce per ounce. That same acre of land could feed the same number of humans 1/14 of their annual nutritional needs, ounce per ounce. I know it's tough to wrap your head around, but the land used to feed cows is not efficient, that's the denouement.
@Colleen De koning Good thing I'm not talking about the Google definition. But well done for managing to use it. By definition yes but the same owners will also have the capacity and land to sell crops which are plants and the term is arable. The point I was trying to make is that there arnt these divisions amongst arable farmers and dairy farmers. Also maybe look up the term mixed farming.
I think Ed has such calmness, grace, logic and rationale in the way he speaks and gets his points across, that ANY lawyer in the world would envy him. 💚
If your mad you know your guilty
I've been giving my 17 year old son soya milk for ages and he didn't notice !!! Eggs have gone...vegetable only meals are more than 80% of our regular meals... we are getting there .
Good for you. I just wish that there was better education to everyone, so that we could start to do this much much sooner for our children. We will get there, i hope.
👏👏👏👏
@Lobster Venus You have strange notions about what constitutes child abuse. All the children suffering at the hands of abusive parents out there and you call someone who cares about the health of their child an abuser? lmao
@Lobster Venus You right, better give em a big mac instead /s.
I don’t think you should substitute, too much consumption of something like soy can have its own problems in itself.. in moderation it’s fine, but like so many people who have 5 lattes a day and substitute milk for soy.. better to start enjoying black coffee or just a dab of soy and get your nutrients like calcium from rich greens and fats from nuts, seeds and vegetables like avocado etc..
That was supposed to be the farmers "debunking" Phoenix? That was almost like a promotion for him seeing as they totally confirmed everything he said lmao 😂😂👏👏
Yeah, imagine if they weren't trying so hard, how it would look when the full reality is on display haha
As they are trying to show "the best" only.
@@HiddenStr3ngth At that point they'd be fully out of business, well they're on their way there already lmao
[in hushed voice] "He's not even seen Gladiator, right..."
That cracks me up every time.
I used to be a really big meat eater, on January the 3rd I had a horrible experience with how my body handled the meat of the day before I ate, that was my hit point. On the 5th of January I decided to try veganism and studying documentaries and seeing how poeple had positive side effects. I'm proud to say I have 2 months being vegan and will not go back to eating meat. I've had so many positive side effects and not to mention the weightloss I've always wanted to loose, I am constantly learning more and more and I love it! I have energy to give out!!
Hope you will not use animal products either as these often put animals through torture just to get what belongs to them in the first place.
I was so elated and moved by all of Joaquin's speeches at the last few awards ceremonies that he won awards at. He clearly shows that the award in his hand means nothing to him, and each time he uses his 30 seconds to 1 minute of time on that stage to speak out against animal agriculture. This is huge, and this is amazing. Amazing response to these backlashes Ed, you're the man🙏🏻🌱
I love Joaquin phoenix & i am so proud that he said that! He was obviously very nervous 💚
His anxiety was clear, but he still made perfect sense. ❤️
@@sharona1981 He wasn't nervous about what he said, he just isn't comfortable in the spotlight.
He has a social disorder which kicks in at the most times when he speaks in front of many people or the spotlight is on him. That's why he hates interviews and speeches. Thanks to Rooney Mara for encouraging and supporting him ^^
@@j4nnikm613 It's not a social disorder... he just doesn't believe attention should be paid to him.
everyone speaking up there to the oscars crowd is/was nervous. it's well known. J did really well. much respect to him.
To paraphrase John Lennon: All we are saying, is give beans a chance.
I've been watching this channel and it convinced me to turn vegan, and it was the best decision of my life!
Times are changing and the moral compass is shifting - even the medical community is starting to slowly tell us to reduce or eliminate dairy. "Dairy isn't going anywhere"?
It sounds like a dinosaur trumpeting his last call before everything changed.
There's more truth in that last sentence than you realise.
doctors telling us to eliminate dairy has nothing to do with morality, if they're only giving advice based on their subjective morals then thats worrying. but yes dairy is not good for the human body
I'd like to see your comment pinned to the top. It's full of hope, and I hope you're right.
We feel entitled ... to blanket vast expanses of plants with herbicides, and overturn vast acreages of soil - displacing and starving billions of sentient animals, directly killing billions of small mammals and reptiles, quadrillions of insects, and untold numbers of soil microbiota, so we can grow food to eat, which we've dubbed "cruelty free" and "vegan." Dairy is a complete food, containing all fat soluble vitamins needed for human nutrition. Plant based diets are deficient in several key nutrients.
@@anthonycapitan5802 What about all the ecosystems that are killed by burning down trees and whole forests to raise these cows? And for your argument, what about all the corn and soy we feed them? Aren't we tilling the soil for that? They're not even supposed to be eating that stuff.
"Dairy farming by far is one of THE LEAST IMPORTANT industries in the world.." BULLS 🎯 EYE.
Next Time:
Random Person:
"We need to kill animals to have meat."
Meatindustry: "lair!"
Phillip Horn I mean we do, how else do we acquire meat products?
@SoggyBreaad wow thats painfully edgy
SoggyBreaad the problem is that the animals are sentient thinking feeling beings and if you wish to have freedom of autonomy then you’re a hypocrite for not granting that freedom to others.
Have never tasted meat ever in my life and also have stopped dairy after listening to this guy.
Respect to Joaquin. The public is steadily waking up to the fact that the reality of milk production is the darkest and wicked part of all farming.
you say that but cheese consumption is constantly growing....
@@swaggyjones9875 I would suggest you kick the addictions, Cheese contains casein. It also contains casein fragments called casomorphins, a casein-derived morphine-like compound. Basically, dairy protein has opiate molecules built-in. When consumed, these fragments attach to the same brain receptors that heroin and other narcotics attach to.
when I was a kid my mother told me (and genuinely believed) that cows spontaneously secreted milk and that getting milked was actually a relief for them. 🤦♀️
thank god the world is changing !
Same! Now at age of 22 I have been vegan for 2 years. And also converted my mom too!
I was told that bullshit as a kid too.
That doesn't makes sense cause how did wild cows survive without humans or baby cows constantly always there to drink from them?
Joaquin Phoenix is the best actor, and that’s a fact
Lmao he's not even the best joker that tittle belongs to heath ledger
Andrea Jasyl, yes, Joaquin is an outstanding artist, and a compassionate person.
"its kinda sad that these men feel that they have to breast feed on camera to assert their dominance" I'M FUCKING LOSING IT
Psychologists should study dairy workers. They're going thru new levels of cognitive dissonance. LMAO.

Okay well iv worked on a dairy farm personally back in the day , what Joaquin Phoenix said is totally correct ,iv seen mothers go though thorn hedges and barded wire fences to get to the cry's of there baby with there own cry's of distress ,iv worked in chicken industry as well OMG its shocking really is , for gods sake these industry's and all of animal cruelty have to be stopped right now , iv been vegan for 3 years , if you give one penny to the industry then your hand is on that knife every day ,that blood is on your hands .Thats the truth of it all .

i think im going to watch your vids all day today, nice to hear another person on this planet say the exact things ive been thinking for decades. i thought i was pretty much alone
I thought his speech was a bit strange at first, (This was before I was vegan), but now looking back on it, I find It incredibly moving.
I was blown away when I saw his epic oscars speech! I was like omg did this actually just happen! I was almost in tears 😭 Amazing speech, balls of steel and spoken from the heart. A true hero who used his Oscar winning moment to talk about the animals and not himself! Selfless and brave! Joaquin Phoenix we are all so proud of you and grateful to have witnessed such a moment in our human history. I think the aliens 👽 🛸 are even talking about your speech up in space!!! 😊
✌️ 💓 🙏
Right!! This world need people like him.
The dairy industry is basically like the horse and carriage industry when automobiles started to gain popularity. Dairy farmers: "Do you think we're losing the battle?". Yes. Yes, you are. Find other industries where you can better serve humanity and the planet, instead of exploiting. "Dairy isn't going anywhere" - yes, it is. It's going the way of the horse and carriage.
Great argument! Will use it now
One of the greatest speeches I’ve ever heard. I was so happy to hear mr. Phoenix talk about these critical issues instead of his own acting performance; humble and brave.
